2004 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

I HAVE A 2004 FORD MUSTANG COBRA. I HAVE HAD THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECOME STUCK UNDER THE CARPET ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. ONE OF THE EVENTS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS ON A DYNO-JET TESTING HORSEPOWER, AND IT WAS CAPTURED ON VIDEO. THE OTHER EVEN HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING, AND I WAS NEARLY KILLED. I JUST HAPPENED TO THINK FAST AND SWITCH THE KEY OFF. I HAVE FIXED THIS BY CUTTING AWAY A SECTION OF CARPET UNDER THE PEDAL. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THIS SOLUTION BECAUSE THIS IS A LIMITED PRODUCTION CAR, AND CUTTING CARPET IS NOT A THING THAT I WANTED TO DO. BUT I WAS AFRAID THAT IF I DID NOT DO THIS I WOULD BE INJURED OR KILLED THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED.

2004 MUSTANG COBRA BOUGHT NEW ONE MONTH PRIOR. DRIVING DOWN A QUIET ROAD, WENT FULL THROTTLE FOR SHORT DURATION, THROTTLE STUCK, I HAD TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION. ACCELLERATOR PEDAL WAS STUCK UNDER THE CARPET. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT, AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN UNDER THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES. THE DEALER FINALLY CUT THE CARPET AND SCREWED IT TO THE FLOORPAN (THE REPAIR IS NOT VISIBLE) AND IT HASN'T HAPPENED SINCE.

DT: THE ACCELERATOR BECAME STUCK ON THE CONSUMERS 2004 MUSTANG SVT COBRA WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED. WHEN THE CONSUMER APPLIED THE BRAKES AND TRIED PLACING THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL, THE THROTTLE WAS WIDE OPEN AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP. THE CONSUMER SIMPLY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND PULLED OVER. THE CONSUMER HAD TO MANUALLY LIFT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, HE IS WAITING TO SEE WHAT FORD IS GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS. THE HAS CONTACTED THE FORD MANUFACTURER WHO SAID THE CONSUMER NEEDED TO MAKE APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP BUT DENIED THERE WAS EVEN AN ISSUE. *JB

2004 MUSTANG - ACCELERATOR PEDAL STUCK AT FULL THROTTLE MULTIPLE TIMES. APPEARS TO BE CAUSED BY PEDAL COMPONENT STICKING UNDERNEATH CARPET.

WHILE DRIVING MY 04 MACH 1, THE GAS PEDAL GOT STUCK UNDER THE CARPET TWICE. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR REACHED AN ESTIMATED SPEED OF AROUND 125 MPH BEFORE I SHUT IT DOWN AND PULLED OVER. THE SECOND TIME I KNEW WHAT HAPPENED AND REACHED DOWN AND LIFTED THE PEDAL UP TO FREE IT. THESE ARE PRETTY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. I'M GOING TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY.

GAS PEDAL HAS GOTTEN STUCK UNDER CARPET A FEW TIMES, AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FLOOR MAT DOING IT BUT AFTER LOOKING MORE CLOSELY IT APPEARS TO BE THE CARPET OR THE WAY IT WAS INSTALLED THATS CAUSING IT.

DT: THE CONSUMER STATED THAT BECAUSE OF HIS CARPET, HIS ACCELERATOR STICKS AND THE BRAKE HANGS ON THE CARPET AS WELL. THE DEALER REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS RECALLED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THE SAME THING. THE CONSUMER HIT A POLE AND CAUSED MINOR DAMAGE TO POLE AND HIS VEHICLE.

I OWN A 2004 FORD MUSTANG V6 40TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION, VIN [XXX]. THE CARPET IS COMING UP ON THE DRIVERS SIDE & PASSENGER SIDE. THE CARPET IS INTERFERING WITH BOTH BRAKING AND ACCELERATION PEDALS. *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

THE GAS PEDAL ON MY 2004 FORD COBRA STUCK ALL THE WAY DOWN AND ALMOST CREATED AN ACCIDENT. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE NOT BEEN INJURED OR TO INJURE SOMEONE ELSE. FORD, THIS SHOULD BE A FACTORY RECALL PERIOD.

I HAVE A 2004 MUSTANG COBRA WITH 18000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE ISSUE I HAVE IS THE THE GAS PEDAL GETTING STUCK UNDER THE CARPET OF THE CAR (NOT THE REMOVABLE FLOOR MAT, BUT THE CAR ACTUAL CARPET). WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE GAS PEDAL IS STUCK TO THE FLOOR, WHERE I THEN AM FORCED TO TURN OFF THE CAR AT SPEEDS OF 70 -80 MILES AN HOUR, EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
